The Chishui River is actually a trickle of water flowing down from the snow-capped mountains. The river is very shallow, and when people wade across the river, the water can only soak through the calves, and the amount of water is not large, but it is crystal clear, and flows slowly from north to south.

Qin Luo was very curious and asked Ye Leyi, "Why is this river called Chishui River?" ”

Yereyi replied: "It was originally called Shenshui, but later it was renamed Chishui River because it was so cold here, and people liked fire, heat, and red. ”

Qin Luo remembered the totem of the Chishui Department, which was also a raging flame pattern case. Qin Luo finally understood the origin of Chishui and the yearning of the people who lived here.

"Don't look at this water is very shallow, but the Chishui River has water all year round, and when it gathers to the south, it will be a big river." Yeleyi said proudly, "It will converge with other rivers and eventually flow into the Lan River in your Southern Chu." ”

"The Lan River is very wide and the waves are very large, and you have to use big boats to cross the river. I didn't expect its source to be such a shallow stream. At the mention of the mountains and rivers of Nanchu, Qin Luo's eyes couldn't help but dim.

Ye Leyi touched Qin Luo's eyes, as if he sensed something, and stopped talking, disturbing his thoughts.

While Qin Luo and the envoy were waiting, Ye Leyi was not idle. She often accompanied Qin Luo to walk around on the pretext of taking distinguished guests to visit Chishui, of course, in fact, to listen to Qin Luo's tone and prepare for negotiations.

After Yereyi and his father had agreed, the second negotiation began.

Ye Leyi was still wearing a formal dress with a flame pattern in attendance, she walked straight to the main seat and sat down, and then raised her hand to invite Qin Luo to take a seat.

Qin Luo was the first to speak, and asked Ye Leyi with a smile, "Seeing that the second lady is full of spring breeze, it must have brought us good news." ”

"Let Mr. Qin wait for a long time." Ye Leyi smiled slightly, "I have always said good things about the Qingyun Department to my father, clarified the pros and cons, and hoped that he would send more troops to support Qingyun." ”

"That should turn out well." Qin Luo saw Ye Leyi selling Guanzi like this, and anxiously looked forward to the final result.

"We'll give you this number." Yereyi pretended to be mysterious, and stretched out three fingers.

Qin Luo looked at it and said excitedly: "Thirty thousand? ”

Ye Leyi smiled faintly and shook his head incomprehensibly, "Three thousand!" ”

"Three thousand?" Qin Luo looked at Ye Leyi incredulously, this is too little. He had to be patient and wrestle with Ye Leyi, "Is the second miss joking with us?" What can only 3,000 people do, is it to send them to death? ”

The rest of the mission also frowned and looked at Yereyi, they didn't expect the Chishui Ministry to be so insincere, they almost slapped the table and left.

"Of course we didn't go to die for nothing." Ye Leyi shook his head lightly, "We will give you three thousand, the Double Red Army." ”

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was taken aback. Those who wanted to slap the table obediently settled down, and even Qin Luo's eyes were full of shock.

The Double Red Army, divided into the Chiyan cavalry and the Chilie infantry, is one of the three elites of the grassland. As we all know, the Black Panther cavalry is all light cavalry, while the Qingyun Iron Guards are all heavy infantry. On cavalry, the Panther cavalry was the first. In terms of infantry, it is the strongest Qingyun Iron Guard. And the reason why the Double Red Army can become one of the three elite armies is because it has both infantry and cavalry. The two complement each other and cooperate with each other.

Being able to lend the elite of the Chishui Ministry, Qin Luo had to admire Ye Leyi's vision and courage. He was deeply grateful: "Thank you, Second Miss." ”

Yereyi just smiled, she thought back to the day when she argued with her father, how hard it was.

A day earlier, Yereyi went to his father's tent and discussed with the Great Khan how many soldiers and horses to send.

King Yele Khan has just received news that the Qingyun Department has been defeated on the Zhanlu steppe, and it is estimated that it will not last long. The other party, Mozang Dag, sent more than 20,000 Black Panther cavalry, and suppressed Qingyun's hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses at once.

"The Black Panther Cavalry can be regarded as an elite who can sweep across the grasslands." King Yele Great Khan was entangled, "Our soldiers and horses, in front of the Black Panther cavalry, what are the odds of victory?" ”

Yereyi is not very optimistic about the situation. She analyzed rationally: "It is estimated that like those Qingyun soldiers on the Zhanlu grassland, even if there are many people, they will not be able to fight the enemy." ”

"The Zhanlu Prairie will definitely not be able to hold it, there is no city there, and the Black Panther Cavalry will sweep like the wind, and no one can resist it." Yele Khan said, "If Tuoba Yan is smart enough, don't spend it with them on the Zhanlu steppe." Withdraw the troops, use Danyang City as a barrier, and duel the victory under the city, so that victory can be achieved. ”

"Tuoba is young and vigorous, and he will definitely not take the initiative to give up the Zhanlu Prairie." Ye Leyi said, "Father, if we want to save Qingyun, ordinary soldiers may not be able to ......."

"What do you want to do?" King Yel Khan interrupted his youngest daughter, "You want to dispatch the Twin Red Army? ”

Yereyi looked at her father and was noncommittal.

"No, absolutely not." King Yel Khan refused, "The Double Red Army is the elite of Chishui, and it must not be lent out. ”

"What then? Do you want to watch Qingyun perish? Ye Leyi asked, "The Shuangchi Army and the Qingyun Iron Guard may be able to fight." ”

King Yele Khan hated iron and said: "I didn't expect the Qingyun soldiers to be so weak, they couldn't even defend the Zhanlu steppe. I think we might as well throw our troops into helping them in vain. ”

Ye Leyi objected, she said: "Father, we had an unpleasant quarrel with the Black Rock Department three years ago. Do you think they will let Chishui go? Qin Luo has a sentence that is quite right, when Heiyan annexes Qingyun, he will definitely point his sword at Chishui or Baisha. ”

Hearing his daughter's words, the Great Khan of Yel hesitated and fell into deep thought. King Yele Khan said in his heart, if he shows favor to the Black Rock Department now, he doesn't know if it's too late.

Ye Leyi seemed to be able to guess what her father was thinking, and she said anxiously: "Father, we must help Qingyun, there is no choice. Even if we bow down to the Black Rock now, they won't believe us. ”

"We can lead our troops to support the Black Rock Ministry, and we can even tie up Qin Luo and his envoys and escort them to Black Rock as a gift to Tou Cheng."

Yeleyi shook his head and said, "Father, have you forgotten?" How did the Black Rock Department swear allegiance to the Jinyang Department back then, and then at the last moment, open the gate of Danyang City and let Qingyun's soldiers and horses enter. Jinyang perished, and the Black Rock Tribe, which did not pay any troops, contributed more than us, and became the second largest tribe in the grassland. ”

Hundreds of years have passed since this incident, and King Yel Khan has almost forgotten it.

Yereyi continued: "The Black Rock Department cannot be trusted, and their promise blows to the wind in the sky. Perhaps Kuroiwabu will welcome our surrender with a smile, and then stab us in the back when the war is over. ”

"This ......" King Yel Khan was not a lord of mediocrity after all, he understood that what his little daughter said was right, and now there was no choice.

I only heard Ye Leyi say at the end: "Father, if Qingyun perishes, it will be our Chishui Ministry's turn next." ”

"Okay." King Yel Khan made a final decision, "I agree to lend the Double Red Army. ”

Over the years, the Yele family has trained 7,000 double Red Army, 3,000 Red Yan cavalry, and 4,000 Red Flame infantry. Yeleyi and his father finally agreed to send 1,000 Chiyan cavalry and 2,000 Chilie infantry to support Qingyun. Coupled with Qingyun's own Qingyun Iron Guard, it will not be a problem to fight against the Black Panther Cavalry.

As long as the Black Panther cavalry is suppressed, in this way, the overall situation can be determined.
